Text Quotes
Let every man consider virtue as what devolves on himself. He may not yield the performance of it even to his teacher  (Confucius Quotes) When you see a good man, try to emulate his example, and when you see a bad man, search yourself for his faults  (Confucius Quotes) A gentleman can withstand hardships; it is only the small man who, when submitted to them, is swept off his feet  (Confucius Quotes) Rate the task above the prize; will not the mind be raised? Fight thine own faults, not the faults of others; will not evil be mended?  (Confucius Quotes) Wisdom, humanity and courage, these three are universal virtues. The way by which they are practiced are one  (Confucius Quotes) The gentleman is calm and at ease. The gentleman is dignified but not proud; the small man is proud but not dignified  (Confucius Quotes) While the gentleman cherishes benign rule, the small man cherishes his native land. While the gentleman cherishes a respect for the law, the small man cherishes generous treatment  (Confucius Quotes) We can know a person by observing his behaviour, understanding the reasons for his actions and ascertaining his intentions. If we do this, how can we not know him?  (Confucius Quotes) Do not worry if others do not understand you. Instead worry if you do not understand others  (Confucius Quotes) Wouldst thou know if a people be well governed, or if its laws be good or bad, examine the music it practices  (Confucius Quotes) The shortest distance between any two points on a golf course is a straight line that passes directly through the center of a very large tree  (Confucius Quotes) We are so busy doing the urgent that we don’t have time to do the important  (Confucius Quotes) It’s only in winter that the pine and cypress are known to be evergreens  (Confucius Quotes) Even if people do not know what real kindness is, they nonetheless have it within them  (Confucius Quotes) Better than the one who knows what is right is the one who loves what is right  (Confucius Quotes) A person of character takes as much trouble to discover what is right as the lesser men take to discover what will pay  (Confucius Quotes) Music is the one thing in which there is no use trying to deceive others or make false pretenses  (Confucius Quotes) A good man does not worry about not being known by others, but rather is concerned about not knowing them  (Confucius Quotes) If a man is not good, what has he to do with the rules of propriety? If he is not good, what has he to do with music?  (Confucius Quotes) A good man is not mine to see. Could I see a man possessed of constancy, that would satisfy me  (Confucius Quotes) Great is the man who can overcome the world, but greater still is the man who can overcome himself, for he will have the world spinning on the palm of his hand  (Confucius Quotes) A man is great not because he hasn’t failed; a man is great because failure hasn’t stopped him  (Confucius Quotes) An orchid in a deep forest sends out its fragrance even if no one is around to appreciate it  (Confucius Quotes) Don’t worry if people don’t recognize your merits; worry that you may not recognize theirs  (Confucius Quotes) Of course you want to be rich and famous. It’s natural. Wealth and fame are what every man desires. The question is: What are you willing to trade for it?  (Confucius Quotes) It is the law of nature that woman should be held under the dominance of man  (Confucius Quotes) Just as lavishness leads easily to presumption, so does frugality to meanness. But meanness is a far less serious fault than presumption  (Confucius Quotes) Clever talk can confound the workings of virtue, just as small impatiences can confound great projects  (Confucius Quotes) In vain I have looked for a single man capable of seeing his own faults and bringing the charge home against himself  (Confucius Quotes) One who has accumulated virtue will certainly also possess eloquence; but he who has eloquence doe not necessarily possess virtue  (Confucius Quotes)
